    This seems to be the theme of most of Double Trouble's posts at the moment. There are threads where I don't care about what's being discussed. They are the threads where I don't post replies. I suggest that Double Trouble posts to further the debate rather than stifle it with such comments - or, I suggest, she doesn't post on threads where she has the above feeling.

    p.s. Did we decide what sex Double Trouble is?

    The Double Trouble robot is a Mark4.2 pleasure unit fluent in over 6 million forms of communication - or so Gav told me anyway.

    Sadly, none of them English.

    Not actually true, but you can't expect me to pass up a straight line like that...

    No thread actually dies.

    It's just been waiting for it's time to come.

    And now's the time. It seems there's some classes starting in Southampton.

    Go here to find out more.

    I'm not sure I can go to their opening night in January as this is on the first page of the website;

    Although they don't list teachers so maybe I'm OK.

    I found them on UK Jive where they are listed by someone called Jamie. Anyone know Jamie?

    Go in disguise, Andy!

    I'm impressed that such a new class can afford to turn people away!

    http://webwhois.nic.uk/cgi-bin/whois...OIS+Submit.y=0 gives you Jamie Allanach, if that helps.

    Re: Smooth Jive Association - Are you a member?

    Fortunately it is a small village hall, so excluding a lot of people might be a good idea, so there is some room, for those who do go. I guess they do not want coaches as there is no off road parking, but why no taxi's I am not sure, as taxi's can drop you off and then leave..

    As to no dancers or DJ's, well I guess you could take a pack of cards with you... as there is free tea and coffee.

    I know that Jamie. He's been on quite a few of my workshops and has even done a DJ guest spot for us at a ball in Brighton in 2008.

    He's a really nice chap and a real gentle, unassuming kind of guy. I can't imagine he wants to be involved in any politics and likes a quiet life. I also think his classes will reflect his personality - they will be gentle, welcoming and understated.

    On the subject of me going in disguise, I think he's seen all my outfits and knows my style well enough to spot me dancing my way out of a paper bag.

    I hope Jamie is doing this for himself and has not been taken in by any of the sharks who swim through the MJ world. Jamie's gentle nature would mark him as prey to those hateful people.

    Hmmm.

    Nothing to do with me .

    I stop using South Coast Dance - Smooth Jive a few months ago as we just do 100% WCS now.

    Would have been nice to have been asked if they minded using a name so similar and not to far down the road first though.

    I actually went very far with this, further than you lot realise. ATM it is an abandoned project as my heart is in WCS currently.
